Now, Disney could have gone a lot of horrible ways in changing Tink's personality. I think I was half-expecting a character who was either all sugar and sunshine or all sass and spice - or at least one of the annoying canned personalities Disney slaps onto their DTV characters. To my astonishment, they actually managed to make Tink a decent, likeable character, <span style="font-style: italic">and</span> they managed to make the majority of secondary characters decent as well. (Bobble and Clank FTW!) It was like... it was like someone at Disney (maybe John Lasseter?) actually <span style="font-style: italic">cared</span>. <img src="images/smiles/icon_razz.gif" alt="Razz" border="0" /> <br /> <br />It was also refreshingly free of the scenery-gnawing you find in most CGI movies these days. For some reason, most non-Pixar CGI movies have idiotically exaggerated animation and acting. o_0 <br /> <br />Sure, it wasn't a masterpiece, but I found it very enjoyable overall. <br /> <br />I'm honestly a little anxious as to how the second installment will hold up - will it also be a decent movie, or will it be on the same level as most of the other DTVs?</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>APK</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Thu Jul 16, 2009 5:47 pm<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">You can see all of it on youtube, you guys.

I was expecting the usual DTV crap with obnoxious characters and horrible acting. The visuals made me think it was going to be something along the lines of Bratz or Barbie. <br /> <br />I was pleasantly surprised. <br /> <br />Sure, the plot was nothing special, but the characters were likable enough that I could let that slide. There were no obnoxious sidekicks and the cute fuzzy critters were cute without inducing diabetes. The humor was, for the most part, <span style="font-style: italic">humorous.</span> It had a few groaner moments, but was overall very enjoyable. <br /> <br />I also applaud Disney for conveying the message that the word needs inventive people, and that the ability to build and invent isn't dependent on having a Y chromosome. The subtle feminist message is wonderful, and is refreshingly free of the superficial trappings that have been tacked onto feminism over the years. <br /> <br />If I had a little girl, <span style="font-style: italic">this</span> would be a film I'd buy for her.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> </table>
